Oh no Dino TIIIIIMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

   I never knew a lot about the tyrannosaurus's relatives before. After  
reading this article I learned some crazy facts that are really interesting.
I learned how the tyrannosaurus had some weird family members, that
won't make you feel like their from the same family.
  One reason, how the T-rex's family is weird is because recently scientists
found these new fossils that show marks of the feathers. Scientists said that
these fossils prove that T-rex's actually had feathers. So they actually do have a
soft side to the aggressive beasts. I never knew that a furious beast like them coud have feathers.
  Another reason,  how the T-rex's family is weird because, they are supposed to
be the strongest kind of dinosaurs, but most scientists think that the T-rex wasn't
that dangerous, because of the feathers. Even though they seem to be carnivores, because of there sharp
teeth.
   I never knew that the T-rex family was actually soft and not so dangerous.The family seems weird.
I can't believe they had feathers. So weird.

plagiarizing

 The student in ms.galangs blog post was plagiarizing, because it wasn't
making sense, the post was referring to the 1900's at one point but how
can a student in this generation be from the 1900's. Also in the beginning
of the post the language of the post wasn't so exotic,but later on the post had
harder language to be said out of a students mouth.
   The blog post that the student plagiarized  on was referring to the Starry Night
painting by Vincent Van Gogh. I found out this because, it was describing the Starry
 Night picture, it had a church at the stars and a small town in the middle of the immigration
era.
 Ways to stay away from plagiarizing is not to copy and paste things from other websites.
If you are going to copy and paste something   you should leave a source and information
from were you got this from, so your not talking all the credit. You should also highlight the others name.
These were three ways to stay away from plagiarizing.

Spring break hw

  I really liked Gabriela's blog post and Gaudalupe's blog post. I like Gabriela's blog post on Much Ado about Nothing, because she explains a lot about how she feels about the show and what she understood and what she didn't understand. She also didn't summarize.
  I  liked Gaudalupe's because she wrote a blog post about a series. I liked the way she said how her theory was wrong, about the next linger book is going to be about the opposite story of the linger book. I liked the way she was being so specific in her blog. She underlined the title and the series.
  Next time when I write my blog I am going to be more specific and I am not going to summarize. I am also going to underline the title of the book and the author. I am also going to explain my thoughts and theories.
